This Song Will Save Your Life by Leila Sales
Making friends has never been Elise Dembowski's strong suit. All throughout her life, she's been the butt of every joke and the outsider in every conversation. When a final attempt at popularity fails, Elise nearly gives up. Then she stumbles upon a warehouse party where she meets Vicky, a girl in a band who accepts her; Char, a cute, yet mysterious disc jockey; Pippa, a carefree spirit from England; and most importantly, a love for DJing.
Told in a refreshingly genuine and laugh-out-loud funny voice, Leila Sales' THIS SONG WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE is an exuberant novel about identity, friendship, and the power of music to bring people together.
Leila Sales is a former Scav participant and judge who graduated from the University of Chicago. She is the author of six young adult novels, including This Song Will Save Your Life and If You Don't Have Something Good to Say, and has worked as an editor at Penguin Random House. Her favorite Scav Hunt memory involves gathering a hundred individuals to play Tetris on a building's windows.
